Backpack hung over his shoulders Byunghyun makes his way across the sidewalk eyeing the people he pass by who look the same— okay maybe not. But he bets he’ll hear the same stories over and over again.
Bored. Bored. Bored was all he was till someone kept him entertained. Riding the skateboard the yellow rays of the sun glints on his locks simply blinking away thoughts that rush by him. Of what’s he to do next go back to the apartment? Play on the skate park or— Byunghyun stops midway just two metres away from another man. Who happens to be sketching the buildings on opposite of him. He looks over o the buildings then at him and the man doesn’t look up once somehow the youngers curiosity tings him to get closer.
And so he does taking small steps carrying his skateboard in hand peeking over to see the white paper adorned with clear graphical lines of the architecture that makes Seoul so beautiful. Byunghyun hesitantly extends his hand out and starts poking the mans head who doesn’t seem to fidget even the slightest and annoyance seeps in him and he flicks Minsoo’s head.
“You! Are you a ghost or something?!”
Nimble fingers were charcoal black from excessively shading in the shadows of the building. Eyebrows furrowed with concentration as he was crouched down, having a more elevated look of the buildings. Minsoo surely wished he was a better artist, to him he was just an amateur. He wasn’t that skilled, but sure enough i was something he loved to do.
It was a perfect day to draw, he was off on his small quick jobs that coughed up cash just for him to get by. Licking his chapped lips slowly, he felt an annoying poke at the back of his head, turning his head to look at the perpetrator, a sight of a short lad, seeming very hipster-ish and with a skateboard too. Minsoo didn’t know he was crouched down on the middle of the sidewalk either. Clearing his throat as he stood back up, arching a brow at the shorter lad.
“Well obviously not since I am not pale like a doll.”
He chuckled softly, holding his sketchbook with one hand, fixing his beanie with the other. “Sorry–was I in your way?"
[ѕмѕ] Yes yes just lemme finish up here for a bit a’ite? blankets got it. see you soon, min.
Jongins eyes was glued to the road after he’d sent of the text to Minsoo. He made his way across the street to his apartment just to change into something more comfortable, entering through the doors and slipping of his jeans and putting his sweat pants on along with a hoodie. Also grabbing two blankets along with the snacks he also had in his small pantry.
He locks the door and jogs off down the stairs and out into the night sky with the moon dimly lit and the stars bright. The cool breeze greets him with fresh air with his hair tickling his nose, he sneezes. Jongin walks faster than usual looking forward to their small meet up you see he was quite fond of this man. They had grown close in a short few weeks and it was nice to have someone like that in his life. Jongin has always wanted someone he can relax with even in just mere silence.
Gazing at his phone to see the time that reads 9.30 pm he frowns wondering if he’s late or not. Striding up the hill he watches the surroundings carefully and he knows he’s far too early.
[ѕмѕ] Min? Here yet?.
Minsoo was panting heavily under his breath from walking up the hill, sure he was in shape and all but after all the schedules he was worn out. Running his fingers through his slick hair back, and looked on the horizon where the moon was already striding to the top of the sky. He thought it was beautiful. Such a sight that you would only think in photography would happen.
Soon after he felt his pocket vibrate, setting his backpack on the ground and slipped his hand down his pocket to fetch his phone. Sliding his thumb across his phone to read the message. ‘here yet’ was all he read before he heard rustling sounds close by.
“Pup, you here?” He cautiously spoke out, seeing a dark shadow making it’s way towards his area. He could tell it was Jongin from the way the other was walking, and plus the amount of bags could only mean he brought the things. Minsoo had the biggest smile plastered onto his face, jumping up and down while waving his hands back and forth, shouting out.
“UP HERE! UP HERE! You better have brought some coke!”
8:27 P.M --- Friday
Minsoo glanced at his phone, the clock ticking with the date shown on his LED screen. It was finally a done day from all the packed schedules he has been doing for the past week. And finally the weekend has started for him. He promised someone close to him that he would take this certain pup out for a night of constellations – Or so more of stargazing. Minsoo exhaled a deep breath, flicking a cigarette onto the ground and squished the bunt with his show. It wasn’t like an idol to smoke really but when it came to nights of stress, he needed it the most.
Taking the request now, and swiping across the screen to unlock it. He clicked the messaging app and selected “Pup” on his contacts. Pressing the various buttons.
[SMS] Hey hey hey, you still up for tonight? I got snacks ready and drinks. I'll even bring pillows okay? Just bring some blankets. It seems really chilly tonight.
Sent.
Minsoo couldn’t help but have a faint smile on his lips, he really did enjoy spending his time with Jongin. Even though he feels like the other get’s annoyed by him. Shaking his head to abandon the thoughts, quickly placing the few sandwiches and macaroons into a small basket. Slipping on more casual comfortable clothing instead of the flashy ‘swag’ attire he had to wear for his idol life. It was strange to him to even seem normal but he felt at home even in the clothes. Gathering all the essentials and placed it in a large backpack. Slinging it over his shoulder and began to walk towards a certain uphill area on the outskirts of Seoul. Not many knew this area but he knows it is where to get the best open view of the sky without the blinding lights of the buildings and cars overshadowing it. Making sure Minsoo had everything he gave an approved nod to himself and walked out the door to the destination, surely to meet up with the other male at the spot.
